I'm more interested in not having my iPhone hacked and not having lots of support calls from customers who have had theirs hacked than whether Apple gets whatever comeuppance you/he decides they deserve.
Whatever comeuppance the market decides Apple deserves after they've failed to adequately serve consumers (or not, depending on the consumer's opinions).
Apple created the vulnerability, and then left it unpatched for an extended period of time. It's Apple's responsibility to not produce vulnerable software, and it's their responsibility to fix software that is vulnerable. They should be held accountable.
C does not equal 'buffer overflows'. Mistakes in C mean buffer overflows.
Humans mean mistakes, ergo, C equals 'buffer overflows' (or NULL dereferences, or format string vulnerabilities, or integer overflows, or ...).
